Artists Dianne Bowen and Jaanika Peerna are pleased to present a one night only pop-up video screening, “Silence Within Storms” featuring, “Speaking In Tongues”, by Dianne Bowen and “Vanishing Silence”, collaboration between Jaanika Peerna and Jane Thornquist. The Videos will be projected onto the side of a brick building on the corner of 2nd Street and Avenue A in The East Village, New York City. Using an outdoor platform, the works which were initially inspired by nature, return to the outdoors yet new surroundings. (Sound can be heard during the reception in the upstairs lounge from 9:30 pm -10 pm)
Dianne Bowen and Jaanika Peerna’s new work reveal the connecting line between the two artists; what lies within the silence of nature, time, elucidation of space, moments unnoticed. They investigate similar ideas from distinctly different perspectives. Jaanika Peerna explores the forces in nature that extend into the silence within, while Dianne Bowen investigates the audible and inaudible natural or man-made systems of communication and miscommunication. Working in multi-media including; drawing, installation, performance and video, Peerna incorporates dance and choreography. Bowen incorporates words influenced by the moment and process. There is a unique poeticism found in each as they push the boundaries of their chosen mediums. Their curiosity and sensitivity to the subtle or overt shifts of their environments allows these influences to inform the works direction as a compass seeking true North.
